Wat bedoeld was als een billijke manier om makers te belonen, is ontaard in een monsterlijk systeem van routinematige overheidssurveillance van honderden miljoenen onschuldige mensen, alleen maar omdat ze een digitaal bestand kopiëren.

The Netherlands, together with Sweden and Denmark, will build infantry fighting vehicles for Ukraine. The largest part, 180 of the total 230 CV90 armored personnel carriers, is made in the Netherlands according to the Dutch Ministry of Defense.

RUSSIAN TERROR

Comes in all colors

Russian deputy justice minister s convinced that the LGBT committee is an extremist organization - carriers of "gay-nationalism" (his words).

"This is no coincidence because the LGBT community is easily drawn into by these characters and become carriers of ideological schemes in the form of gender extremism and gay nationalism. These actions call for open gender warfare," Russian official said.

Windows Recall demands an extraordinary level of trust that Microsoft hasn’t earned

Op-ed: The risks to Recall are way too high for security to be secondary.

It just clicked in my brain. What I haven't been able to articulate about why I'm so anxious about #Windows Recall. I'm sure others have already gotten to where I am.

It's worse than "a system that tracks everything you do" and stores that info in a basic database that could be easily compromised.
It's worse than a nanny surveillance tool for companies to spy on their employees.

It's inescapable.

It doesn't matter if I make a dozen "how to disable recall" tutorials. The second YOUR data shows up on someone ELSE'S screen, it's in THEIR recall database.

It won't matter if you're a master #security expert specialist. You can't account for EVERY other computer you've ever interacted with. If a family member looks up an old email with your personal data in it, your data is now at risk.

If THEIR system is compromised YOUR data is at risk.

I just went from "vague feeling of unease" to "actively writing templates to canvas elected officials, regulators, and attorneys general."

Russian military personnel from Stavropol, who refused to serve due to health issues such as cancer, tuberculosis, and mental illness, were deceived and sent to the front lines in the "DPR" under the pretext of being taken for questioning. Their relatives reported the incident, expressing their concerns and demanding the return of their loved ones to Russia for treatment. This case is part of a growing trend in Russia, where "refuseniks" are being sent to the front lines.

Already shared the original comments from this researcher ( @GossiTheDog ) some days ago but now mainstream media seems to have picked up that #Microsoft #Recall is a security disaster in the making.
“Encryption at rest only helps if somebody comes to your house and physically steals your laptop — that isn’t what criminal hackers do.”

muzicofiel,

@ErikJonker @GossiTheDog don’t forget to mention the last proposal of #belgium of the client side scanning idea. It’s a disaster for your privacy and dangerous because you can be hit by false positives. Try then to prove your innocence. #css #eu and note it’s not only images but also text. #police are already claiming they want that data too.

I ask this relatively regularly because I want to keep an eye on the landscape.

I'm a software engineer with a PhD in international criminal law. I am on the lookout for (open source?) projects that are useful to human rights researchers/activists/defenders. I am hoping to contribute as a volunteer software engineer.

If you know of a project like this, please get in touch. If you don't, please boost if you'd like!

For those who aren’t aware, Microsoft have decided to bake essentially an infostealer into base Windows OS and enable by default.

From the Microsoft FAQ: “Note that Recall does not perform content moderation. It will not hide information such as passwords or financial account numbers."

Info is stored locally - but rather than something like Redline stealing your local browser password vault, now they can just steal the last 3 months of everything you’ve typed and viewed in one database.
